4 FIRM HEAVILY ATTACHED.
THE OHIO DEMOCRATS.

Opening Speech of the Campaign by
 Their Candidate For Governor. l HAMILTON, O., Sept. 7.-The Democratic State campaign was opened here this evening l by large and enthusiastic meeting. The I Duckworth and Ohio clubs of Cincinnati and
 the Jefferson club of Springfield were present with leading Democrats from other points of | the State. The first speech was made by | Hon. Thomas B. Powell, candidate for Gov l ernor, who was enthusiastically received. He said Governor Foraker's attack upon Presi- dent Cleveland in his speech accepting the I nomination for Governor of Ohio had been l condemned by private citizens and by the public press throughout the country. Gov ernor Foraker had publicly insulted the four hundred thousand Demo- cratic voters of Ohio by referring to them as the ''rebel brigade" and as 'fconfed-
 crates" and "dirty Democrats. Speaking of the matter of the rebel flags MT. Powell said the Governor by his conduct at soldiers re- unions, and especially of Wheeling, had dis Rusted the best men in his own party and they had called halt on him. This had gone to such an extent that the executive committee had issued second edition of his speeches, and unlike the tariff they had been bsth revised and reformed. MT. Powell said the people wanted Governor who would give less attention to the war that ended twenty years ago and more to the peaceful problems of the present and future. He claimed that Cleveland's administration had done more for the soldiers and their depen- dant relatives than any Republican admins tration and closed with tribute to President Cleveland.

A line of hose was run into the hold. the officers assisting, and with in half hour the smek ceased. Other pass sengers tell similar story.

ExeK6ement I'm the Massa chusettS Cons
 vention over Woman Suffrage Reso.
 Iutions.
 WORCESTER, Sept. 7.-At the Prohibition
 covention, to-day, the one exciting episode
 occurred during the reading of the resolutions.
 Chairman Gray was frequently interrupted
 by applause and cries of ''good," but when
 the third plank in the platform, that treating
 of woman svfrage, the convention lost it's
 head completely and cheered and stamped, olapped and shrieked till they were exhausted. Then somebody called for second reading The request was granted and the convention again went wild with excitement. When the chairman finished reading the resolutions w. w. Nash, of Williamsburg, got the floor. He said some of the third party men thought woman suffrage not only inexpedient but absolutely wrong, and as the could not afford to estrange amp section oi it's voters he offered substitute for the Third plank. IL was re- ssolution to the effect that the ques- tion of woman suffrage ought to be submit- ted to the people by the legislature. He had hardly finished speaking before Lewis Car roll, of Marblehead, submitted an amend AAOAO CO bAC bAA1o kIduA. 1I COLlOolAOo tACbC words, "therefore we demand as an act of simple justice, that the legislature grant nun icipal suffrage to woman. Then there was a tremendous row. Man after man got the floor only to be crushed out of sight by ob struse points of order and cries of ''order' and "question". Lewis Carroll, of Marble head, said he would give the ballot to wo- men if he had to take it away from the men, and that if those who were opposed to wo- man suffrage wanted to leave the party, they might go. The discussion was continued with great animation by Mrs. E. Trask Hill of Charleston, Dr. Clara Rogers of Lawrence, and by others, until at last the question was put and substitute killed, and the amend ment adopted by an overwhelming majority. When the anti woman suffragists arose to be counted but few dared show their heads. The following were appointed delegates to the national convention: Rev. Dr. A. A. Miner, Rev. James W. Hamilton, of Somer- vile; Dr. John Blackman of Springfield, and Professor John Bascom of Williamstown. The convention adjourned after a spirited address by Rev. w. H. Boole of New York.

Bridgeporters are Sin peck of trouble" At the last meeting of the council petition with many signatures was presented, which read thus "The under signed, citizens of Bridgeport, would respect fully petition your honorable body to ascer- tain by committee of conference or otherwise on what terms the city can purchase the fran chise, rights and property of the Bridgeport Hydraulic company and the Citizens Water company, and if found practicable. and reasonable terms can be agreed upon, to take such additional action as shall place the water supply of Bridgeport in control of and under the authority of our city" The peti- tion was unanimously referred to the present Investigating committee.

 Tine Tine a:as5l. s:aisl, s:ssA There was great interest in the special race between the pacer Johnston to wagon and Harry Wilkes to harness. In the first heat the horses got the word on the second at tempt, Johnston having slight advance. At the turn Johnston had length the best of it and was gaining at every stride. At the half Wilkes was barely holding his own two lengths in the rear. Coming into the home stretch Wilkes closed up on Johnstons s wheel, but could not overhaul him, John ston finishing a length sand half in the lead The second and third heats were repetitions of the first, Wilkes quitting at the distance stand and jogging in four lengths in the rear. The third heat was trotted and paced to empty benches, the crowd leaving the grounds before the start to avoid ducking, heavy rain setting in shortly after o'clock. There was very little betting on the result, odds of $10O to $e0sbe- I ing freely offered on Johnston with but few takers.

An Interrupted Court.

The spacious halls and corridors OF
the county jail were brilliantly illumi-
mated last evening, the occasion be-
ing a moot court. Mr.. Burk, under
present sentence for stealing a suit of
clothes from Dick Leathers, was
prosecuting attorney: o. V. Garter,
whose attempted effort to leave the
Columbia was frustrated by Divine
Providence, was the presiding judge,
and Andrew Norris, who goes to
Salem for a brief respite from the
cares OF business life, was the counsel
for the defense. The first prisoner
tried was j. f. Patterson, and not
withstanding the eloquence OF the
defense and the impassioned appeal
of the prisoner, who literally and fig
uratively threw himself on the court,
a sentence Of five years was imposed,
greatly to the satisfaction of Mr..
Burk. Further proceedings were in
terrupted by jailor Curran, who said
that there had been complaints from
the neighbors Of having their chick
ems stolen by former prisoners, and
he wanted no more foolishness.

English Salmon Market.

The London Grocer, Sept. 3, says.
Stocks in London are exhausted,
and the supplies needed here have TO
be drawn from Liverpool, where ex-
treme rates are demanded, say 29s
per case for Columbia river fish, and
25s Cd for Frazer and outside river
packs; but no activity can be said to
exist"
The Liverpool correspondent OF the
Grocer writes as follows: This
market is very firm, and steady sales
continue in spite of the high prices
ruling. The catch is extremely short
and large contracts fall through en-
tIrely, as the eastern states take all
that has been packed, and many
packers only promise to deliver sur
plus, which is now nil"
The London GrOceT'S Gazette says
their Liverpool correspondent writes
as follows: "Salmon-We have to
report very firm and active market,
and thus far there are no apparent
signs of the advanced prices having
affected consumption; both retailers
and dealers are continually and regu-
larly replenishing their supplies, and
as they are merely buying for their
immediate necessities, the volume OF
trade now doing proves conclusively
how bare the general market is OF
stock"

7. NJ. c. A. CONVENTION At TIE DALLEs.

The Astoria delegates retu rning
from the convention of the Young
Mems Christian association OF the
Pacific northwest, held at The Dalles
from the 22d to the 25th inst. report
a very successful and pleasant con-
yention. The chairman of the state
committee called the convention to
order at 10 o'clock Friday morning.
The following officers were elected:
President, A. G. Ansell of Spokane
Falls, w. T.; first vice president, J. L.
Ross of Astoria, Or; second vice
president, w. Austin of New West
minister, B. c.: third vice president.
Thos. p. Boyd OF Salem, Or; secre.
tary, g. A. Charnock of Astoria, Or.
A number of excellent papers we're
read by the delegates, which we're
well received. J. L. Ross of Astoria
read a paper on "The Social Work of
the Association" Rev. G.. G. Hall
contributed paper on "The Relation
of the Association to the Church" :"
which was followed in an able speech
by Rev. J. McCormac. The general
secretary of our local association read
paper on Association Work in
Small Towns. Papers were also read
on "The Educational Work" The
Board of Managers-Their Dutiei.n y
Association Work-How Carried
Out" THE General Secretary"
Boys Work" Training Glass;" "A
Successful Gymnasium" and "Col-
lege Work" On Friday evening ma
jor Joseph Hardie addressed a public
meeting on "a Business Mans View
of Association Work" The speaker
said the first thing a business man
asked was will it pay?" As a bust
ness man he thought it was paving
when carried out on correct business
principles. He advised associations
always to get their money before
spending it. He SAID he never knew
an association fail to get financial
support il they did a good honest
work.
Twenty-one associations reported
to the convention, and fourteen asso-
Citations were represented by So dele
gates. There are now a associations
in the Pacific northwest.
Over 81, 200 were raised in conyen-
tion for state work, and travelling
secretary is to be engaged immedi-
ately. Eight hundred dollars was
raised on Sunday evening for the To-
cal work at The Dalles. The next
convention will be held in Seattle.
The closing exercises Of the conven-
ton were very interesting. After
singing "Blest be the tie that binds"
with hands clasped around the church,
the president declared the fourth an
nual convention of the Pacific north
west associations adjourned.
The value OF these conventions to
the work of the associations can
scarcely be overestimated. New ideas
OF the work are gained by association
men and new courage to put them in,
to execution. These organizations
are probably doing as much to bene
fit the class for which they exist as
any otheragency in the county.

THE great John Bright has a son
in parliament who thinks and acts fol
himself. Strange as it may appear,
he doesn't think and act as his father
does. The son is an ardent home
ruler, and after making a bright
speech in favor of the Gladstone meas
ure, his father wrote him sharp let
ter, calling his speech nonsense.
Whereupon the son replied to hl'
father as follows:
DEAR FATHER: / am in receipt of you
letter, and after carefully reading hav,
come to the conclusion that it is not suci
q communication as one statesman
should address to another; therefore
you'll excuse me if do not answer 1t.
The sons independence so pleased
the old gentleman that he had NJ
more remonstrances to offer.
